I was doing a very difficult gravel ride on my carbon gravel bike yesterday (March 2nd, 2025). I was near the end of my ride and was very exhausted; debating my life's choices.
Right at the area where Linda Vista Ave turns into Highland Drive, north of the Rose Bowl and close to Devil's gate, I was passed in the opposite direction by the most beautiful, green Rivendell. If it wasn't a Riv, it was something very much in the style of Riv. It gave me a bit of an existential crisis. Why am I riding? Do I want to kick my own a$s on a carbon bike on truck trails that are in bad shape? Do I enjoy trying to keep up with other riders who are much better than me? Or, would I rather just explore in style on a beautiful bike at my own pace? Anyway, all of that aside, if the rider of that bike is in this group, that bike is spectacular! Cheers!
